Sam is defending the innocent best he can. Help him help the children! ### ⭐ I am surprised this book was even published *by A***W on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 2, 2012* I have never left a review of any of the books I have bought from Amazon, but was compelled to comment on this one. Before anyone reading becomes defensive of my review I will start by saying I bought this book because it sounded like a very inspiring story. What I found however, was the poorly written rantings of an egotist. I can not believe that this book has even one good review, let alone nine. The story is all over the place. One minute we are in the Sudan the next we are back in the US. Did anyone edit this rag? I particularly enjoyed those anecdotes about Childers' encounters with the LRA guerrillas. These same individuals who are war hardened, desensitized to death and dying, and have committed unspeakable acts of violence on their fellow humans, are struck with fear when Childers comes around. He must be a very intimidating person. I read about forty pages before I had to do a little digging on Childers. Sam Childers, even after some cursory investigation is at best a liar, at worst a murderer. I understand Christians embracing Childers because he never fails to remind the reader how often God speaks to him, but I am at a loss to understand how anyone reading this book doesn't come away with the perspective that Childers, while an expert on self-promotion, is nothing more than a sad, arrogant, braggart with Daddy issues and a serious Napoleonic Complex. Why do I have to read page after page of him beating up the biggest, baddest guy in town with two punches? Or when he was a teenager, that he was so irresistible to all the adult women in the neighborhood, they all just HAD to have sex with him? Has anyone seen a picture of this guy? He is always the shortest dude in the photo. Childers revealed something interesting when he told his family he was going to the Sudan to help construction projects. "... by that time, I'd been springing African schemes on them for years." (pg22) The use of the word "schemes" is an interesting choice. He says on the one hand God called him unexpectedly to the Sudan but reveals he had been thinking about it for years. It is obvious he has spent a great deal of time in the Sudan but it is hard to believe it has been in the capacity he has claimed. I think at best he does the average missionary work and then takes a bunch of pictures with the locals with guns in his hand to make the people back home think he is really fighting. I can not find any article or eyewitness account of anyone (other than Childers himself) actually seeing Childers in a combat situation. I think before anyone gives money to this guy's "mission" they should really look deeper. Christianity Today reported in September of 2011 that an American doctor visited Childers' orphanage in July of 2009 and reported he "...saw one child after another with fever over 100 degrees Fahrenheit, ruptured eardrums, fungus-infected heads, protruding bellies, and infected lacerations. ... I am at a loss for words as to the suffering of these children." In a letter dated October 2010 Lt. Gen. Kuol Deim Koul official spokesman of the SPLA, released a letter saying that Childers is NOT associated with their organization. And even if Childers were associated with them, his credibility as a savior of the Sudanese children comes into question. According to a 2004 report issued by the Coalition to Stop Child Soldiers the SPLA themselves had in their ranks between 2,500 to 5,000 children. Anyone who has been associated with drug users will know that they are the most selfish, self-absorbed people walking. In this book, he claims he only fought for people who could not fight for himself. In an April 27 2010 Vanity Fair article, Childers is remembered very differently by people who knew him growing up. They remember him more for fighting for no reason at all. One man even remembers Childers demanding to have sex with the his girlfriend and saying that Childers only went away when the man gave him all of his drugs. That same Vanity Fair article reports of a stockpile of weapons that Childers KEEPS IN THE ORPHANAGE!!! The article goes on to say he sells the weapons from this location to SPLA. I lived in the deep South, around Mobile Alabama for a lot of years and if there is one thing I learned about Christians is they will lie through their teeth if that will get you into their church and give your hard earned money. Childers is no different. Like that idiot preacher in Florida who burned the Koran to shine a spotlight on his insignificant little church, Childers is the same. So many people have bought into it because it reads like a Hollywood script. But that is all it is. A story concocted by an opportunistic nut who is only whoring out images of poor suffering children to line his bank account. Its sounds like he is nothing but a petty arms dealer in the middle of a conflict. I think he saw this during his missionary work early on that he could make a buck down in Africa selling illegal Russian weapons to the SPLA then when the media comes he plays it up like he is fighting with them. I know times are hard and we are all looking for heroes but Sam Childers is not one of them. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Angels with dirty faces *by J***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 19, 2009* There are countless reviews on this book as it is, but for what it's worth...The Word says,"he who is forgiven much, loves much." I have been involved in biker ministry, prison and jail ministry and I have found that those who have come out a background that included not ready for prime time behaviour were the ones who sold out and applied that same energy and intensity to their Christian life. Sometimes it was a struggle to harness and aim the intensity in the proper direction, but when it happened, they became bulldozers for the Lord. Sam Childers is an example of this. To me, it is a relief to see someone who doesn't need to "feel led" to put it all on the line to do His work. I'm sure he is criticized by many in the church who will sit on their hands, year after year, growing roots into their pews and have to "pray about it." Then when the prayer gets answered using someone who says,"here I am send me," they will systematically dissect them for using unorthodoxed methods to save and change lives.Personally, I wasn't concerned how this book was written. If I wanted literature I would have read Bernard Shaw or Oscar Wilde. I wanted to know how Childers got from point A to point B and I found out. I saw many parallels in the lives that have surrounded my own. I hope celebrity doesn't change him as it so often does to those in position in the Christian world. There are enough rock star preachers. If you like getting dirt under your fingernails and you're a blue collar Christian, read this book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/7523937-another-mans-war-the-true-story-of-one-mans-battle](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/7523937-another-mans-war-the-true-story-of-one-mans-battle) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
